Love them or loathe them, it’s undeniable that Lincolnshire is becoming a hotspot for solar farms. Permission has been granted to put panels on more than 10,000 acres of land, with another 13,000 acres in the planning process. According to research by campaign group Lincolnshire Against Needless Destruction, this is significantly above the national average.

Everyone in a Lincolnshire village is opposed to plans for a battery farm just down the road, residents say. The Brant Energy Storage project would place at least 1,300 battery containers, each the size of a large car, on fields near Lincoln. The village of Coleby sits at the top of a hill overlooking the proposed site on Hill Rise. Local people say the development would ruin their view of the surrounding countryside, as well as creating large volumes of traffic using their narrow roads.

Survey works will begin soon for Anglian Water’s plans for a major new reservoir in Lincolnshire. The scheme would require flooding five square kilometres near Scredington, close to Sleaford, at the loss of at least 15 homes and farms. Anglian Water is hoping to submit the Lincolnshire Reservoir application in 2028, with construction starting around 2031 if it’s approved. The surveys are being carried out to gather information about the land and its environment to influence the designs.
